Review of Plant Operation - Plant Inspections (Units 1 and 2)

The inspector reviewed plant operations through direct inspection and

observation of Units 1 and 2 throughout the reporting period. Unit 1 operated

at power through the inspection period mh exception of a reactor trip on

December 28, 1981. Unit 2 operated at full ' power until December 5,1981, when

a refueling and maintenance outage was commenced. Currently, it is estimated

-

that the outage will be completed and the unit brought on line during March 1982.

3

.

a.

Instrumentation

Control room process instruments were observed for correlation between

channels and for conformance with Technical Specification requirements.

No unacceptable conditions were identified.

b.

Annunciator Alanns

The inspector observed various alarm conditions which had been received

and acknowledged. These conditions were discussed with shift personnel

who were knowledgeable of the alarms and actions required. During plant

inspections, the inspector observed the condition of equipment associated

with various alanrs. No unacceptable conditions were identified,

c.

Shift Manning

The operating shifts were observed to be staffed to meet the operating

requirements of Technical Specifications, Section 6, both to the

number and type of licenses. Control room and shift manning was observed

to be in conformance with Technical Specifications and site administrative

procedures.

d.

Radiation Protection Controls

Radiation protection control areas were inspected. Radiation Work Permits

in use were reviewed, and compliance with those documents 3 as to protective

clothing and required monitoring instruments, was inspected.

Proper

posting of radiation and high radiation areas was reviewed in addition to

verifying requirements for wearing of appropriate personal monitoring

devices. There were no unacceptable conditions identified.

e.

Plant Housekeeping Controls

Storage of material and components was observed with respect to

prevention of fire and safety hazards.

Plant housekeeping was evaluated

with respect to controlling the spread of surface and airborne con-

tamination. There were no unacceptable conditions identified.

'

f.

Fire Protection / Prevention

The inspector examined the condition of selected pieces of fire fighting

equipment. Combustible materials were being controlled and were not found

near vital areas.

Selected cable penetrations were examined and fire

barriers were found intact. Cable trays were clear of debris. No un-

acceptable conditions were identified.

g.

Control of Equipment

During plant inspections, selected equipment under safety tag control was

examined.

Equipment conditions were consistent with information in plant

control logs.

.

.

.

h.

Instrument Channels

Instrument channel checks recorded on routine logs were reviewed.

An independent comparison was made of selected instruments. No

unacceptable conditions were identified.

i. Equipment Lineups

The inspector examined breaker positions on switchgear and motor control

centers in accessible portions of the plant. Equipment conditions, in-

cluding valve lineups, were reviewed for conformance with Technical Speciff-

cations and operating requirements. No unacceptable conditions were . identified.

4.

Loss of Control of Valve Position for Safety Related Instrumentation (Unit 1)

At 1850 on November 17, 1981, while operating at full power, Millstone Unit 1

experienced an apparently spurious trip of the "B" Reactor Protective System

(RPS). Alams associated with "B" RPS indicated that a main turbine load

rejection had been sensed.

Other plant parameters, alams, and breaker and

valve position indications indicated that no load rejection had actually

occurred.

Further investigation found turbine control valve fast closure pressure switch

PS-39 isolated. This pressure switch is cae of four which provide inputs of

control valve oil pressure to the main turbine load reject logic.

Pressure

switch PS-39 was returned to service at 2020.

Surveillance had been conducted

on these pressure switches earlier on November 17 using Surveillance Procedure

SP408G, revision 2, " Turbine Control Valve Fast Closure Functional Test /Cali-

bration" and was completed at 0850. This procedure requires shutting the isola-

tion valve to PS-39 and, later, requires reopening the 31ve.

In its restoration

section, SP408G requires a further check of isolation valve position. Depart-

mental Instruction 1-I&C-9.03, " Instrumentation Line-up Restoration", requires

that such verifications be conducted independently by a technician different from

the valve manipulator. This is an item of noncompliance (245/81-16-03).

The isolation of pressure switch PS-39 reduced the number of operable fast

closure sensor channels below that required by Technical Specifications.

This is an item of noncompliance (245/81-16-04).

The licensee has conducted training for instrumentation and control technicians

to reinforce the need for proper valve control.

The licensee has implemented

a program to label heretofore unlabeled valves on instrument racks containing

safety-related instrumentation and to color code valve hand operators to

further differentiate nomally open and nomally shut valves on these racks.

The inspector has no further questions regarding these corrective actions.

Core Power Distribution Limits - Unit 1

a.

Scope

The inspector observed conduct of the "Whole Core LPRM Calibration and

BASE Distribution" with process computer program 00-1. A sample of

" Periodic Core Evaluation," program P-1, edits were reviewed. . Licensee

plans for ascertaining operation of the core within themal limits during

periods of process computer non-availability and for recovery from process

computer outages were also reviewed. The inspector also assessed the

implementation of a revised process computer program package, GEXL+15.

Findings

0D-1 operation. All Traversing Incore Probe (TIP) data was properly

---

obtained and accepted by the pmcess computer.

P-1 operation. The implementa ion of GEXL+15 has expanded the voltne

---

and utility of the P-1 data p. rentation. For example, this edit

presents Maximum Fraction of Limiting Power Density (MFLPD), Maximum

Fraction of Critical Power Ratio (MFLCPR), and Ratio of Average Planar

Linear Heat Generation Rate to its limiting' value (MAPRAT) as well as

the locations of the twelve fuel bundles most closely approaching

thermal limits. Also presented is a fraction of rated core thermal

power in a format readily commrable to MFLPD for use during power

t

maneuvers.

--- Process Computer Non-Availability. The licensee utilizes the Back-up

Core Limits Evaluation (BUCLE) off-line, remote computer facility of

General Electric Company. The implement of GEXL+15 provides enhanced

communication of recorded data from the magnetically recorded " Security

Log" to the BUCLE computer to simplify BUCLE use. The accessibility

and close correspondence of the results of BUCLE and on-line process

computer was demonstrated. The licensee does not anticipate critical

plant operations under conditions requiring manual calculation of

limits by the TBAR method.

Thermal Limits. The sample of process computer edits examined

---

indicated that the plant was operated within the bounds of applicable

thermal limits.

On two occasions on December 7, initial results of

the P-1 calculations indicated that themal limits had been exceeded.

On each of these occasions, however, the process computer determination

of control rod pattern erroneously indicated an asymetric condition.

._

___ ___ __ ___

.

.

'

.

This resulted in the calculation of inaccurate flux levels for

unmonitored core locations and, thus, inaccurate thermal parameters.

In both cases, operators determination of symetry pattern and manual

input of symmetry code was successful in obtaining a calculation

using actual symmetry, which was within thennal limits. The inspector

reviewed other. indications of plant status. These parameters, together

with the bracketing P-1 data, indicate that thermal limits were not

actually. exceeded during the times of improper calculations.

A failed circuit card was found in the process computer digital input

section involving rod position scanning. The card has been replaced.

Implementation of Changes and Alterations. The implementation of

---

the GEXL+15 program has been a major task for the station nuclear

engineers. This has involved witnessing of demonstration tests and

program check-out, review of documents, comparison of results of

GEXL+ and GEXL+15 computations, and interface verification with BUCLE.

Training for plant operator: wa: deemed incufficient, however, operator

unfamiliarity with the process computer edits contributed to the

confusion regarding the proximity to core thermal limits. For example,

the inspector pointed out the apparent discrepancy in Average Planar

Linear Heat Generation Rate at about 2030 on December 7.

The compu-

tation time of the P-1 edit indicating the limit was being exceeded

was 1800 on December 7.

A " flag" variable indicating the process

computer interpretation of control rod symmetry signalled the difficulty

during the P-1 computed at 1500 on December 7.

The licensee has committed to complete retraining of operators in

process computer inputs, outputs, and operations by March 31, 1982. The

licensee has also committed to review the

value

of annunciating

or otherwise alarming the result of any determination of a thermal

limit being exceeded.

These are identified as open items.

Unit 1 Trip of December 28, 1981

At 0010 on December 28, 1981, Millstone Unit 1 sustained a reactor trip due

to low reactor vessel water level. The plant had been operating at full

power and efforts were being made to reduce condenser sea water intrusion by

applying sawdust and varying circulating water flow. Varying circulating

water system lineup and flow is an evolution which is known to produce a

rippling or wave action in the hotwell

at Unit 1.

At 0010, main condensate

pumps, condensate booster pumps, and main feed pumps tripped on low suction

pressure. Reactor vessel level rapidly dropped initiating the reactor scram.

Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIV's) were manually shut to terminate coolant

inventory loss. The lowest reactor vessel water level reached was an indicated

level of -35 inches (91 inches above the top of the active fuel). The condenser

hotwell level recovered rapidly and the normal feedwater path was returned to

service. MSIV's were reopened and the normal cool-down pathway to the main

condenser was restored.

-

'

-

.

Further investigation revealed difficulties in the condenser hotwell level

measurement and control system. Two hotwell level measurement loops are

provided; one at a time may be selected as the controlling loop. Each

hotwell level measurement loop includes an electro-mechanical level sensor

(Masoneillan 12500 series). As water level changes, the bouyancy, and thus

the weight, of a displacer body varies. This variation in weight of the displacer

is mechanically transmitted to an inductive-coupling electrical pick up. The

"A" loop had been selected for control at the time of the trip. An attempt

to calibrate the level sensor revealed that it had previously indicated

a level 17" above the actual hotwell level. Troubleshooting disclosed that

several components of the mechanical linkage were loose. The linkage was

tightened and "A" level sensor was calibrated satisfactorily.

"A" level sensor

was installed in 1969. The looseness found in mechanical linkages is deemed

by the licensee to be due to normal wear. This level sensor will be replaced

when replacement materials become available. The "B" level sensor was installed

in February 1981 and was found to be in calibration. The "B" loop is presently

selected for indication and control with "A" available as a backup.

Prior to the trip, the plant had been operated with an intermittent hotwell

level alarm. High hotwell level and low hotwell level were annunciated by a

common alarm and displayed through a common window.

It had been assumed that

the alarm was a high-level alam.

In retrospect, it was a low-level alarm.

The licensee has separated the alams so that the low-level alarm and high-

level alarm are displayed in separate windows.

The unit was made critical at 0426 on December 29, 1981. No unacceptable

conditions were noted.

conflict with the Technical Specifications; logs and incident reports detail

no violations of Technical Specification or reporting requirements; and logs

and records are maintained in accordance with Technical Specification and

Adninistrative Control Procedure requirements.

There were no unacceptable conditions identified.

8.

Review of Periodic and Special Reports

Upon receipt, periodic and special reports submitted by the licensee

pursuant to Technical Specification 6.9.1 and 6.9.2 and Environmental

Technical Specification 5.6.1 were reviewed by the inspector. This review

included the following considerations:

the report includes the infnrmation

required to be reported by NRC requirements; test results and/or supporting

information are consistent with design predictions and perfonnance spec.ifica-

tions; planned corrective action is adequate for resolution of identified

problems; determination whether any information in the report should be

classified as an abnormal occurrence; and the validity of reported information.

Within the scope of the above, the following periodic reports were reviewed by

the inspector:

Findings

Procedure preparations for the cycle 5 refueling were completed in a

timely manner. Prerequisites were found to address the status and testing

of plant systems required for refueling, inspection of replacement fuel

and internals, conditions for spent fuel movement, status of fuel handling

equipment interlocks, and the designation and control of proper tools.

Procedures governing planned evolutions were found to address the reactivity

' status of the core; minimum operable instrumentation; step-wise instructions

for the sequence, orientation, and seating of fuel and components,

criteria for halting refueling operations; and containment status. Also

addressed were responsibilities and duties of personnel, communications.

Special Nuclear Material (SNM) accountability, shift turnover, rules for.

intervals when refueling is interrupted, and core verification. Plans for

the eventuality of fuel damage during refueling were in place. No

unacceptable conditions were identified.
